Spaghetti Bolognese is a popular Italian pasta dish served with a tomato-based meat sauce. This is the fondest childhood pasta memory of mine, and also the earliest pastas I know of & enjoyed when I was a kid. Ordering a plate from anyplace was such a treat back then. Now, I get to enjoy this dish with a yummy home-made bolognese sauce.

The meat sauce can be prepared in advanced – warm the sauce and combine it with the cooked pasta just before serving. In fact, I made a huge batch of sauce over the weekend, freeze the extras in individual serving bags and thaw them when needed. In this way, we can have delicious bolognese pasta dinners anytime, even on busy weekday nights.

i think you’re being hard on yourself! i don’t have time to make my own tomato paste! the ‘cheating’ part is not simmering your ragu for like 3 hours. but who cares. still looks yum and you followed the traditional rules by not using a tomato-sauce base!!

the only thing i would say to add next time is some red wine. you’ll notice a bit of a kick w/ the sauce!
